Synthesis of a Tricyclic Mescaline Analogue by Catalytic C−H Bond Activation

Organic Letters March 22, 2003 Kateri A. Ahrendt, Robert G. Bergman, Jonathan A. Ellman 99 citations

[reaction: see text] A tetrahydrobis(benzofuran) mescaline analogue has been prepared in six steps and 38% overall yield from (4'-O-methyl)methyl gallate. The key step in this synthesis is a tandem cyclization reaction via directed C[bond]H activation followed by olefin insertion.
